Re: Sic Semper Trashis II @ (Bristol) Virginia High School

We're now under two weeks away and things are coming together nicely.

We are however in great need of staff, so if anyone is willing to serve as staff, that would be incredible. In addition, the staffer discount has increased to $30 off

More updates, info, etc. will be coming in the next few days

Re: Sic Semper Trashis II @ (Bristol) Virginia High School

Was the first edition of the music game ever mirrored anywhere? I don't think I've played that and it sounds great. I got the idea from Chuck Pearson, who played it with my high school team. He would tell you it's based on a game called K-Tell-Hell, the origins/details of which I am not sure of The...

2016 VHSL States

Just wanted to say how proud I am of Honaker and Central for taking home the 1A and 2A state titles today.

This is especially noteworthy given that Central had to beat Maggie Walker to clinch the title, which they did handedly.

Great job to these teams for representing Southwest Virginia!

Re: Non-DC Metro Virginia 2012-2013

I didn't realize Roanoke was considered Southwest Virginia lol. As for Single-A, Honaker and George Mason will of course be favored. Anyone else with insight on the smaller schools, particularly in Deep SWVA's Region D?

VHSL Region D Tournament

Tournament will be on 26 Jan at Union HS in Big Stone Gap, VA. Who all will be there? I know Honaker obviously will be & Virginia High and Lebanon are representing the Clinch Mountain District but that's all I know for now
